South Africa: Cape Town, Stellenbosch, and Kruger National Park
The trip in a nutshell
Multi-destination trip
This trip starts in Cape Town and ends in Johannesburg - remember this when booking your flights!
Are you ready for a road trip like never before? This tour of South Africa is exactly that! We are going to explore the Southernmost region of the African continent, from its complex history all the way to the breathtaking natural beauty of these lands. Get ready for 13 days packed with fun and most of all, adventure!
The tour starts from Cape Town, one of the three (yup, three!) capital cities of this region. We’ll head to Johannesburg following the coast from Cape of Good Hope to Plettenberg Bay and Port Elizabeth. You’ll dive into the different cultures and traditions of the big cities, all the way to the characteristic wild nature of the African bush. To top it all off, we'll go on a wonderful game drive in Kruger National Park trying to spot the Big Five: leopards, lions, buffalos, rhinos and elephants!
